In week four of Self-Mastery class our assignment was to read the following piece by Paul Williams from Remember Your Essence and write a thought paper:
Your Essence
Picture a burning log, like in a fireplace, a hearth.
Now see it as if it were floating in the air a few feet in front of you,
and notice that there are two elements here: the log, and the fire
that clings to it.
Now move this image of a burning object into your body, so that you
can feel it like a warm, comforting glow inside your chest.
This burning log is real, and it exists inside you.
